Too much of life

Ever felt loved and betrayed?

Kinda feels evil.

Dark and handsome,

Till it hurts you.

Look at the world,,

And paint it with one color.

Its not so black and white,

But what you choose may be Grey.

You are a prey of choices,

Choose what suits you,

But what makes you think you are correct? 

This world is complex,

A rubrics within a rubrics.

Try all the rubies,

They are worth less than scums. 

Been on the rough flow for a while now. 

Trying to get through, 

Is like trying to get ahead of time. 

Tap twice maybe peace might respond,

Knock when opportunities keep silent. 

Give me a trident,

 I might choose a pitchfork, 

Shows how contrary I can be.

How Ironic my life is talking about love,

I end up talking about choices.

Confused is all I ever be,

Refuse to be what the world wants,

I will oppose what the world wants.

The love I get, gets me on the negative,

Try not to be passive about it,

I live on the aggressive line.

Been on anger drinks lately,

Stinks of death more than usual.

Try to hold on to the life,

But I can't keep on living like this.

#dawn thank you for taking time reading this piece I am honored even though I have had time accepting compliments, I am actually happy to know that I am not the only one who goes through this more reason I should stick around. It actually gives me strength to find someone who relates to the way I feel

I love how you said everything. Pushed it and exposed the deep.

What color?
Is like trying to get ahead of time...
Yes. Everyone who has ever had the courage to love - esp those of us that come from a less than perfect beginning - knows exactly where you were when you wrote this.
well done...
